Summary:
Explains how animals, birds, reptiles, and insects vary their markings and color to hide from their enemies and respond to their environment.
"Why do some animals wear disguises? An animal disguise is called camouflage. Camouflage can help an animal hide from its enemy. An anole can change color, a ptarmigan is speckled with the same colors as the rocks that surround it, and a toad matches the leaves on which it rests. Next time you go outside, look closely. There may be an animal hiding nearby." -- back cover
